Re: Two Poignant Videos
And you guys dont think I am sane when I see either a secular armageddon or a sacred armageddon.
This doesn't clarify anything. What the hell is a secular armageddon? What the hell is a sacred armageddon?
Which will lead to skyhigh prices.
Yeah, that's the worst part of global war, the high prices.
And STOP POSTING THOSE STUPID VIDEOS!

Re: Nuke the Ukes!
Putin will just keep taking. Putin is playing a game of brinkmanship where he carefully balances taking against provoking, and so far we're falling for it.
Then we should just get on with it now. No warning, no more waiting. Hit Moscow with the 10 biggest nukes we have now. I'm not trying to make light of what you are saying, but we all know with certainty that the only thing that will stop that murderous fuck is death.
The only way to stop him is to take him out along with as many of his thugs and as much of his tyrant shit as possible.
Two choices, give him a running start at taking over the planet and inducing possibly hundreds of years of tyranny, or stop him dead now and hope that's enough to demonstrate the total insanity of letting tyrants hold the world hostage with nuclear weapons.
If we wait to draw a line it will be too late to save anything anyway.

Re: Give us links to your sources!
I can't speak for others, but I celebrate Ukrainians killing an invading Russian General! It's a war. If he didn't want to be killed he should not have invaded another country!

No use accelerating climate change.
Which by the way is the secular armageddon I mention. People will fight for diminishing resources orrrrrr we will become a one-world global (UN 3.0?) government...
So, climate change is the secular armageddon you have been mentioning? Why not just say climate change? When I asked you specifically what you meant I got nothing, but now it's climate change.
People are already fighting over diminishing resources rather than cooperating to find solutions. Based on watching the U.S. tear itself apart we can't even keep a single country together, let alone a one world global government.
Government is the tool we have used to keep civilization functioning, but when the majority of humans intentionally sabotage it, civilization fails.
Do you humanist optimists see any better solutions?
I don't know who the humanist optimists are and that is not how I have ever thought of myself, but yes I do see many better solutions.
Isn't it you guys who like mandatory resolutions if they save the planet?
What mandatory resolutions are you talking about? Enforced by who?
I personally think we are far passed the point of saving the planet. There are 8 billion humans and dwindling resources and collapsing ecosystems all due to human behavior. This cannot be fixed.
I say we need Jesus.
I know. Head in the sand.

Re: Oh, Squeaky, Wherefore Art Thou
No more Russian troll. Maybe they'll assign another.
There are plenty waiting in the wings, but LNA was a master at twisting everything anyone said into support for his twisted historical bullshit.
His mind was like a double mobius strip of illogical dementia. Everything he wrote here was a Gish Gallop of incoherent lies, accusations and insults.
For fuck sake, he tried to paint the Russian invaders of Ukraine as the heroes and Ukrainians defending their country as the aggressors.
Good riddance!

Re: Pecking Away at Poland
I think the bigger question is whether the EU and NATO nations will continue to trust the US, particularly if Trump remains an influential political reality.
I don't trust us!

Re: Pecking Away at Poland
There are two ways NATO can be hurt.I still argue that the main way that the West will be crippled is economically.
Wait, what about all that gold that the governments and banks are all buying, that you are always going on about? Why are they buying all that wonderful gold if it can't save us/them?
